Opinions wanted....Details...Details

Well...you all know what they say about opinions....I will go no further so I don't get whacked by Theron :)


Any help with the following would be helpful...

1. Since I have a gas tank now, where shall I mount the brake resovoir?

2. Battery box....anyone have success with a certian type. I was looking at the Moroso box in the racing section of the Summit catalog.

3. My SB came with a nice wiring harness and fuse block, where the heck is the best place to mount it?

Thanx in advance.

1) With the larger tank won't the brake res. fit against the back of the trunk compartment?
2) I'll skip on this on
3) The SB manual says to mount the fuse block under the dash. We all know how much that is to work on. I'm mounting mine in the trunk on the side wall in front of the gas tank. This is where it's mounted on the 911's and it's very easy to access. May want to install a cover once you're done. Probably going to have to add some pigtails to wire the instrument cluster also.

Battery box....go get a marine battery box and mount it where the spare would be in a beetle.

Fuse block, put it in front compartment on the cowl wall right in front of where the passenger sits. Again, if you want a picture i can post or email one.

Jerome,
My CMC-Cs have the brake resevoir mounted just in front of the tank or the right side. The lines go down right there to the master cylinder. Write me if you want me to post or send you a digital picture. I can tommorrow.

Pictures would be great....no rush, whenever you get the time.

Thanx to all

I was thinking of mounting the fuse block down next to the battery in the front. Any one see any issues with this?

Seems like it would work, but I think I would advocate putting it up on the cowling. It is closer to the ignition, guages, radio and central location as well as in a more dry, less likely to get damaged area. Seems like down by the battery may have more moisture and traffic putting car covers and gadgets in.
